Appalachian Brewing Company Celtic Knot Irish Red Ale

For the March seasonal beer, Appalachian Brewing Company released the Celtic Knot Irish Red Ale. The beer has a bubbly cream colored head with a reddish amber color. The aroma consists of ginger and malts. The taste is filled with nutmeg, ginger, and sweet malts. There is a light hop balance on finish. The alcohol content is 4.8% ABV. I though that the Celtic Knot was a good overall beer. The spices really balance out the hops and the sweetness, making a very enjoyable and flavorful beer.
